Ottawa Press Release

The Huskies took to the hills of Ottawa Saturday, hills so big they each have their own name. While no PR's were achieved, kids ran some of the best races of the season.  We did manage to bring home 2 individuals champions, 1 team champion, and one team runner-up.

The 7th grade girls brought home 3 medals.  Haylee Weese was 5th, Caroline Clarke 13th, and Ava Yager was 13th.  Aaliyah Kerby was close to medals finishing 25th and Marissa Wise ran a strong race, finishing 44th.  The girls were 3rd as a team.
